[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look at job placement statisitics for undergraduate business majors ---many have a job lined up before they graduate. [/quote] Yep. Until I see job postings seeking classics majors, I am skeptical of this article. [/quote] Classics majors are probably better prepared for the business world than business majors.[/quote] The principal I work for at my agency was a classics major at HYP and then got his law degree at HY. Absolutely killed it in his career at a law firm covering financial regulation and becoming an expert on banking. Classics major + a Level 1 CFA will get looked at by banks if they go to the right undergrad. That said, Classics is better as a double-major. I’d hesitate to recommend anyone at a tier 2 or below undergrad to get ONLY a classics degree. They should combine it with something else (CS, hard science, Econ, business, stats, etc)[/quote]
